Managed to stretch last years shrink wrap back on last Saturday with my son. We certainly didn't loose out on any fishing time with the weather last weekend, and this weekend could be worse. Happy to have it wrapped up and I've already moved on to winter home projects.

I hauled out on the noon high tide. Brought it around the corner in 17 kt NW and cold rain... My season never really got off the ground. Was hoping for a solid fall, but weather did not cooperate.

I've been using the same shrink wrap cover for 15 years...I just apply a little shrink tape over the bad spots...
Ross...it's been a long time since we've had a fall run worth the aggravation that comes with a late haul...I'm happy to pull the boat rhe 15th as required by the marina and winterized and covered asap..this year just backs that up..
It was an outstanding summer but as soon as the days begin to shorten it all went south (no.pun intended)..A few decades back in bass fished into November. ..it's hardly worth it anymore.

A good run is better than a bad stand!

So true Joe. Years ago we use to fish Watch Hill until Thanksgiving and get tons of fish. One year Bryan Oakley, Spencer and I fish the Block the day after Thanksgiving and go decent fish...not schoolies. No sure that happens anymore. 2 years ago I fished The Block in Mid Nov and got a few small fish.

No boat, back in the suds.
